Numbers 11:4-6
King James Version (KJV)
4 And the mixt multitude that was among them fell a lusting: and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, Who shall give us flesh to eat?
5 We remember the fish, which we did eat in Egypt freely; the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the onions, and the garlick:
6 But now our soul is dried away: there is nothing at all, beside this manna, before our eyes.
My Reflection: This, to me, is a lot like the month of February. I am so tired of the grey days. (Yes, I spelled grey G-R-E-Y just because I wanted to. You can read all about it by clicking here.) I need a change from grey air, grey sky, dirty grey snow. I remember the joys of summer, and the sun, and the heat, and the kids playing outside. Knitting on the hammock and taking naps in the sun. I think it is very human to tire of something and want something different. We are constantly changing, "needing" the newest latest thing in technology, wanting this years model of Mustang, hoping that next year will be better for us. I can imaging after 40 years of gathering Manna in the desert I would want for something a little different, too.
